Product Information

Each massage gun was trialled for a three-week period, used to prime and relieve our experts' muscles around their fitness-filled schedule of weightlifting, HIIT, running, yoga and more. I also considered the importance of extra features, like carrying cases for portability and protection and Bluetooth connectivity and app integration. And I looked for the presence of automatic shut-off timers and programmable percussive settings that tailor massages to specific preferences and needs. Ease Of Use They also said it was sufficiently powerful, providing instant relief from soreness, even at lower speeds. There were no issues with jolting or juddering over their skin, making for an extremely smooth massage experience.

The Prime has five built-in speeds, but you can also select any speed between 1,750–2,400 percussions per minute to customize your treatment in manual mode.

If you are a more experienced gym-goer or fitness fanatic, we would recommend the Theragun Elite. Why should I buy a massage gun? I considered the metrics that any massage gun should have. Amplitude, for example, indicates the depth of the massage head's movement, which directly impacts muscle penetration. Percussions per minute (PPM) measure the rapidity of the device's pulsations, which influence the intensity of muscle manipulation. Stall force gauges the device's ability to maintain pressure against the body without stalling. And battery life determines the convenience and longevity of use. Attachments And Features

Massage guns can also potentially help you recover from heavy sessions. “Once the body is relaxed, you will decrease cortisol levels (stress) and create an optimal healing environment for recovery, getting towards an anabolic state of recovery,” says Giordano. “To do that, spend 90 to 120 seconds moving up and down each muscle group.” There are various types of massage guns on the market, including standard handheld models, travel-friendly versions and even those for specific body parts. Opt for a model that meets your needs and provides relief in a manner that benefits your lifestyle.
